The citation for Arsenic's role in the human nervous system does not provide additional information.

Thorium edit

"thorium....Has no known biological role,[4] and moreover is extremely rare in the Earth's crust." --> This is extremely wrong. Thorium is more common than, e.g., lead, silver, gold, etc.Eudialytos (talk) 21:28, 15 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
